MEMBER NEWS
Patient Access Week is right around the corner, and this year IU Health West Hospital is reaching out to ask for your support in helping them recognize and celebrate the incredible work of our Registration team here at IU Health West Hospital.
Their team is often the first point of contact for patients and families—setting the tone for their entire experience. From check‑ins and insurance verification to offering compassion during stressful moments, our Registration staff works hard every day to ensure patients feel welcomed, informed, and cared for.
To make Patient Access Week special, they’re planning small events, tokens of appreciation, and treats to recognize their dedication. If you’re able, they would greatly appreciate donations to help make this celebration meaningful. Examples of helpful contributions include:
- Snacks or drinks
- Gift cards
- Small giveaways or raffle items
Any contribution—big or small—will make a difference and help them show the team how valued they are.
If you would like to donate, please feel free to reach out directly to Jennifer Lee at jlee85@iuhealth.org, and she can arrange pickup or coordinate next steps.
Thank you in advance for helping them honor the hardworking Registration team who support our patients and community every single day!
The Onboarding Gap: What Hendricks County Employers Get Wrong After Day One
A strong onboarding packet gives new hires the legal documents, role clarity, cultural context, and structured milestones they need to succeed — not just survive the first week. Only 12% of employees strongly agree that their company onboards well, meaning most new hires walk in without the foundation they need.
